Grocery-store frame styles should be broadly wearable, self-service friendly, and varied enough to serve recurring local shoppers without creating a labor-heavy fashion category.
Use a practical core
- familiar rectangular or softly squared shapes
- a rounder or softer alternative
- narrower and roomier fits
- neutral colors plus limited visible accents
Keep powers and styles separate
Reader powers must be easy to identify and refill. Style breadth should come from clear shape, size, and color differences, not from scattering one style across many powers.
Use repeat traffic

Measure the result
Track style-family sales, power stockouts, customer requests, aging, reorders, and maintenance time.
